Ever Uvi Community
Decolonizing Business Education and Community Programming
for Students, Entrepreneurs and The Business Community
“In a world where marketers compete for relevance and struggle to replicate the magnetism and loyalty of our cultural connectivity…
Now, is when we lean in.”
Clarinda Tivoli
Ever Uvi Community Founder
Ever Uvi
The Educational Model
In Fiji, the uvi (yam) is regarded as a “noble crop”.
Our entire calendar revolves around the root crop – with names of months referring to fishing and flowering seasons, correlating with uvi growth and harvest.
The year’s climax, in February, begins with
the uvi harvest that is presented as “first fruits” to the chief.
Ever Uvi is a symbol of the all-year-round, environmental and interpersonal reorientation required in liberation of past and current impacts of colonization.
How we do this in our business community, as an ongoing, regular practice, has a significant impact on our economies, and our greater world.
Our programming now offers:
- Educational courses and activities every month
- The autonomy to determine your own education pathway (join, pause or cancel, and opt in for select course material or programs, with no grand time or financial commitment), and
- Opportunity for liberatory business practice, on a regular ongoing basis – a vital commitment in decolonization work.
Members can expect a business support structure that molds to their needs.
Whether seeking independent study, regular 1:1 consultation, or collaborative group discussion – Ever Uvi orients entirely to serve you + your rooted work: your most noble crop.
“Our stories are within us. You’ll find them encoded in genealogies, embedded in our hearts, imprinted in our minds. They migrate with the tongues that tell them, flourish in the presence of orators and gossips and are readily transported to the arenas of lotu and aiga, where they open and close wallets, elevate and deprave souls, win and lose wars.”
– excerpt from ‘Our stories are within us’ by Serie Barford
Koro
Community Membership
Koro is the Fijian word for “village.” Traditionally, a koro’s design and function is deliberate and purposefully precise. In Ever Uvi, we are dedicated to embodying this level of intentionality and foresight. Our commitment goes beyond just addressing educational needs. With intentionally-crafted programming, we unite a global collective that shares our unique values, fostering a deeply enriching and nourishing network of support.
Kabasi
Courses Membership
Kabasi is the Fijian term for “compass.” As Pasifika people, our ancestors were master navigators, utilizing their intricate knowledge and profound relationship with stars, ocean, wind, and all life that surrounded them. These concepts of direction, purpose, and resourcefulness, in harmony with the natural elements, are values woven into the fabric of all our business classes, courses, and consultations.
